To make sure that you get through airport security quickly and to ensure that the cane fits in the plane, you can use a collapsible cane.
This way, when you have to hand over your cane, you can simply fold it up, allow it to be handled more easily.

As a walking cane is an assistive device, you are able to take it aboard an aircraft.
This means that until you sit down on the plane, you will have your walking cane with you. Due to the security measures in place, however, you may have to be parted with it at times.
For instance, it will have to be placed in the x-ray machine to be examined by airport security. If you have difficulties standing upright without any assistance, you should inform a member of the security team. They will be able to guide you until you are given your cane back.

You will need to hand over your walking cane once you have been seated. The flight attendant will store it for you in a designated area.
Once the plane has touched down at the destination, the cane will be returned to you. If you are not allowed to keep your cane with you, you should remember to ask for it before getting up to walk around.
If you are given permission to keep the cane with you, you should ask the flight attendant the best way to store. As you are surrounded by other passengers in rather cramped conditions, your cane may get in the way.
